Notes From Elsewhere
Doctor Jean-François Caplin was the author of 'The Electro-Chemical Bath, for the Extraction of Mercury, Lead, and other Metallic, Poisonous and Extraneous Substances from the Human Body'. Wilkie Collins owned a copy signed by the author. He even took a course of Caplan's 'electric baths' himself, writing to a friend that 'The result is great cheerfulness and great disinclination to pay inland revenue'.
